Overview[]

The Carpet Bomb is a powerful air strike that can annihilate any insufficiently hardened structure within the area the size of a football field. It is comparable to the Stealth Bomber Attack, Fuel Air Bomb and Cruise Missile Strike.

The Carpet Bomb is extremely effective against infantry, vehicles and unhardened structures; hardened structures such as bunkers are not affected by this air strike.
